Lessons of Life

As I have been learning to sit back and learning to listen for the quiet voice and direction of my heavenly father, I cannot help to evaluate my life and the hunger and desire I feel burning inside.  It becomes relevant as I seek to find more quiet time that I begin to prioritize my life and my day and all the distractions that may come with it.  It becomes necessary to remove those things that may be addictions or could hinder that precious time with the father.

I am learning that a sacrifice to the father will bring eternal benefits and rewards.  These can only come as we persevere and seek the face and will of our Father.  To learn to lay down and ultimately surrender to the will of the father takes great work.  In this there is much character to be learned.  For myself is self discipline.  To be disciplined to control myself and not give way to temptations.  To control myself to becoming who the Father would want me to be.  I could ultimately continue this list to great lengths, but ultimately we are powerless without the will and direct guidance of our heavenly father.  I pray that in my coming days ahead as I seek to obey the will and seek a deeper more profound relationship for those areas that I see the great hand of God and hear the words "Well done my good and faithful servant".
